With the third day of action in order, there will be some 8-ball mixed in with the 7-ball in the new staggered drawing system. Games that are not explicitly mentioned in a particular style are 7-ball. First up...

Tysini Hummingbirds star Charli is next to make her season debut, using the red cue. Charli made no mistakes after potting a pair on the break, clearing the table in only 7 shots with no errors. The first 8-ball game goes to Midland Predators veteran Chicky Phil, who will use the silver cue. Chicky Phil was strong in the outing, taking only 19 shots with no errors as a couple of early runs paced his play. The silver cue remains active as Quincy makes his Modernistic Union debut in 7-ball.

The second group begins with Tysini Hummingbirds rising star Sarah, playing 7-ball with the blue cue. Sarah tried to finish early but couldn't sink the 2-7 combination at the bottom right, instead settling for 10 shots and one error.

Luigi makes his Commerce Tradewinds debut in 7-ball with the purple cue. Luigi had a decent effort, but a late gamble led to his lone error as he fouled on a 6-7 combination. Luigi then had to finish the rack at 10 shots. Another 7-ball game sees the Pearl Surfers' Wings use the blue cue in his season debut. Wings had a solid break and played efficiently in 8 shots to close the effort with no errors. Stonebridge Wolves rookie Lindsay ends the group with her career debut with the red cue.

Another 7-ball game sees the Pacific Volcanoes' Ms. Kitty using the red cue. Ms. Kitty had a good break, but couldn't find good positioning throughout, taking 13 shots with an error at the end.

Vladimir finished early, taking a 2-7 combination to the top left to end with 3 shots and no errors. Up next, Josie makes her Viewpoint Sound Meteors debut with the red cue. Josie made a mess of the turn, often left with bank attempts that pushed her score to 14 shots and one error. Whitewater Shores captain Shaggy will try to redeem the red cue in 7-ball. Shaggy did well, starting her season with only 8 shots and no errors as she kept control very well. The red cue goes again as Oceanside Waves sophomore Megan plays 7-ball. Megan managed to hang on despite a very nervy start, closing out with 9 shots and one error.
Atlantic Pirates captain Delila opens the sixth batch with the red cue in hand for 8-ball. Delila was productive with her poorer shots, keeping things error-free and closing in 20 shots. Westside Rockers rookie Carly is next, using the silver cue in 7-ball for her career debut. Carly's debut was one to forget, as she took two errors and needed 19 shots to get through it, losing her cool by the end. The silver cue remains active as Whitewater Shores rookie Rachel uses it in 8-ball. Rachel did her best to keep control even with an early scratch as her lone error. She was sharp late, ending in 21 shots. The 29th player of the day is Tysini Hummingbirds star Sugar, who uses the blue cue in 7-ball.

Stinky skidded early in his appearance before locking in at 12 shots and no errors.
Today's final group commences as Westside Rockers newcomer Snowball uses the green cue in 8-ball. Snowball avoided errors, but her late work was sloppy as she closed with 23 shots. Oceanside Waves newcomer Daisy is next, taking up the red cue for 8-ball. Daisy was in total control early on, but eased up a bit at the end to close with 17 shots and no errors. Archtown Arrows newcomer Cubby also plays 8-ball, using the green cue in today's 48th game.

The green cue remains in play for Capital City Sharpshooters captain Chris' season debut in 7-ball.
